May Day

I took the day off today as I just needed a day off of work. We didn’t have any special plans, but on Thursday night, I decided I wanted to do May Day baskets and ordered a bunch of supplies from Target. The boys were less than thrilled, but ended up helping out and both participated in the deliveries. 

We had some laughs and tears and challenges trying to manage the deliveries and candy spilling all over the car, but we all rallied and if anything, we will have some memories. It really made my day to be able to spread some cheer and share a childhood tradition with   the boys.

We also went into Boulder to pick up the car, get Snarfs for lunch and get a car wash. The errands took way longer than planned for various reasons, but it was fun to just be out and about with the boys. 

It is difficult for me to take a day off and just be at home with no plans, but I thoroughly enjoyed the day and being reminded how much we have to be thankful for.
